Saros Series of Solar Eclipses

Solar Eclipses in Saros Series 136

This page lists all the solar eclipses in saros series 136. The series contains 71 eclipses, occurring over 1262 years.

The following chart shows the paths of the
total (in blue),
annular (in red), and
hybrid (in yellow) solar eclipses in the series which also have
mapping data; this is restricted to eclipses between 1900
and 2100, so only a selection of eclipses from
the series are shown. Use the
zoom controls on the left to zoom in and out; hover over
the marker in the middle of an eclipse track to see
information on that eclipse. Bear in mind that for
each eclipse shown, a partial eclipse is visible over
a much wider area.
